Homeland services were designed so that 'internal' services could be taken care of by homeland government departments such as education, agriculture, or health. Because the homelands were designed at short notice, simplicity was a main feature. [...]where leadership prevailed, 'health' became the outcome and services were adapted to maximize the health impact of the collective of staff and other resources available.
